Laminated glass
safety glass that holds together when shattered, consisting of multple layers of glass held in place by interlayers
Laminated glass is a type of safety glass that holds together when glass breaks.[1] In the event of breaking, it is held in place by an interlayer, which might be made of polyvinyl butyral (PVB), ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), or thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU).[2] When broken, it caused a "spider web" crack pattern.
